Be a Part of the Secret Santa Fun

Last year, 42 people exchanged gifts in the Irish Fireside Secret Santa. It was a fun (and not-so-secret) way for people around the US (and a few international locations) to spread a little Irish holiday cheer. Here’s how you can participate:

Fill out the sign up form below by Friday, December 10th.

We’ll send you the name, address and email of your Secret Santa recipient on Saturday, December 11th.

Make, buy or contrive some sort of gift valued at about $10 (US). We embrace creativity and encourage an Irish theme, but ultimately, everyone is left to their own devices.

Ship your gift with a personal note by Saturday, December 18th (we encourage you to include your email and/or mailing address – this is not intended to be entirely secret)

Deadbeat Secret Santa Report - Sunday, Dec 26th – Yep, it happens, sometimes people DON’T fulfill their duties as a Secret Santa… oh the shame!!! We do our best to pick up the slack, but PLEASE DON’T BE A DEADBEAT SECRET SANTA.

I received my Secret Santa gift today, and I love it!! My secret Santa (Kerry) sent me two CDs of Irish music. I can’t wait to listen to them both, since I love Irish music. One of them is Irish Immigrants’ songs, which is particulary meaningful to me since my great-grandparents were irish immigrants to the US. This was all great fun, I can;t wait to do it again nexst year. What a great way to connect all us Celt-o-philes!
